Ice - is water frozen into a solid state.

It can appear transparent or opaque bluish-white color, depending

on the presence of impurities such as soil particles or air inclusions.
Flake ice - is made of the mixture of brine and water (max 500g salt per ton of water), in some cases can
be directly made from brine water. Thickness between 1mm-15mm, irregular shape with diameters
from 12mm to 45mm.
Cube ice - is created in a cubic shape, with each edge usually between 15mm and 35mm. The surface
area of every ton of cube ice is approximately 1,383 square metres (14,890 sq ft).
Tube ice - can be used in the cooling process, such as temperature controlling, fish fresh freezing, and
beverage bottle freezing. It can be consumed alone and with food or beverages.
A ton of refrigeration - (commonly abbreviated as TR) is a unit of power used in some countries
(especially in North America) to describe the heat-extraction capacity of refrigeration and air
conditioning equipment. It is defined as the heat of fusion absorbed by melting 1 short ton (0.893 long
ton; 0.907 t) of pure ice at 0 C (32 F) in 24 hours.
Brine - is a solution of salt (usually sodium chloride) in water.
Brine agitator used for regular circulation or flow of water for cooling of products like milk ,beer,
chemicals, mainly used in Food Processing to keep the temperature of the rooms and chambers intact
where products are kept for long time.

Compressor
Gas compressor is a mechanical device that increases the pressure of a gas by reducing its volume. An
air compressor is a specific type of gas compressor.
Centrifugal compressors use a rotating disk or impeller in a shaped housing to force the gas to the rim
of the impeller, increasing the velocity of the gas. A diffuser (divergent duct) section converts the
velocity energy to pressure energy. They are primarily used for continuous, stationary service in
industries such as refineries, chemical and petrochemical plants and natural gas processing plants.
Axial-flow compressors - are dynamic rotating compressors that use arrays of fan-like airfoils to
progressively compress the working fluid. They are used where there is a requirement for a high flow
rate or a compact design.
Reciprocating compressors - use pistons driven by a crankshaft. They can be either stationary or
portable, can be single or multi-staged, and can be driven by electric motors or internal combustion
engines. Small reciprocating compressors from 5 to 30 horsepower (hp) are commonly seen in
automotive applications and are typically for intermittent duty.
Rotary vane compressors - consist of a rotor with a number of blades inserted in radial slots in the rotor.
The rotor is mounted offset in a larger housing that is either circular or a more complex shape. As the
rotor turns, blades slide in and out of the slots keeping contact with the outer wall of the housing. Thus,
a series of decreasing volumes is created by the rotating blades.
Rotary screw compressors - use two meshed rotating positive-displacement helical screws to force the
gas into a smaller space. These are usually used for continuous operation in commercial and industrial
applications and may be either stationary or portable.

Condenser
Evaporative condenser Most industrial ammonia refrigerating plants are equipped with evaporative
condensers. The refrigerant vapor flows through the closed tube system of a heat exchanger. The
outside surface of the heat exchanger is constantly sprinkled with water. Air is conducted with aspirating
or forced draught fans through the heat exchanger, thereby the tube system is cooled and the
circulating water evaporates partly.
Hybrid Condensers are the combination of an evaporative condenser and an air-cooled condenser. The
refrigerant vapor flows through a finned heat exchanger or through a combination of finned and non-
finned heat exchanger. Due to the large surface of the integrated finned heat exchanger it is possible to
operate this system up to a defined ambient temperature (e.g. 15 C) without using a water spray
system.
Air-cooled condensers Most refrigerating plants with non-natural refrigerants are equipped with air-
cooled condensers. During the past years, the use of air-cooled condensers for ammonia refrigerating
plants has increased, especially in regions with high costs for water and wastewater. In air-cooled
condensers refrigerant vapor flows through the tube system of a finned heat exchanger. The fans
aspirate the air through the heat exchanger so that the refrigerant vapor is cooled down and condensed.
The condensing heat is only dissipated by the means of the cooling of the heat exchanger with air.

Evaporator
Evaporator - is a device used to turn the liquid form of a chemical into its gaseous form. The liquid is
evaporated, or vaporized, into a gas.
Bare tube evaporators - are usually used for liquid chilling. In blast cooling and freezing operations the
atmospheric air flows over the bare tube evaporator and the chilled air leaving it used for the cooling
purposes.
Day tank
A day tank is typically sized to provide a day's worth of usage. (Hindi ako sure dito ha.)
Hoist Winch
Winch - is a mechanical device that is used to pull in (wind up) or let out (wind out) or otherwise adjust
the "tension" of a rope or wire rope (also called "cable" or "wire cable"). In its simplest form it consists
of a spool and attached hand crank. In larger forms, winches stand at the heart of machines as diverse
as tow trucks, steam shovels and elevators.
